00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:03.279
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, good morning, good morning, and welcome, welcome, welcome,

2
00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:06.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's time now for our community connection. Maryland Man

3
00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:10.519
<v Speaker 1>with okam music is here and my goodness sakes, mary Lynn,

4
00:00:10.599 --> 00:00:13.400
<v Speaker 1>you had a busy, busy, busy Chris Kendle Mark, it

5
00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:14.080
<v Speaker 1>was beautiful.

6
00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:18.679
<v Speaker 2>We did, Tom. Unfortunately the weather ended up cooperating. We

7
00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:21.480
<v Speaker 2>moved it inside anyway, except for the kids jumpy. But

8
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:25.760
<v Speaker 2>we had our biggest turnout ever with just around one

9
00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:27.399
<v Speaker 2>thousand people. It was insane.

10
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:31.079
<v Speaker 1>It was vendor mania in there. I mean, wow, you

11
00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>had so many booths and so much selection that that

12
00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:38.679
<v Speaker 1>was so unbelievably well put together.

13
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:41.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh thank you, Tom. We had a really good time

14
00:00:41.679 --> 00:00:44.920
<v Speaker 2>doing it. I think all the vendor feedback we got

15
00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:48.640
<v Speaker 2>was really positive. Vendors, you know, had a good time

16
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.119
<v Speaker 2>showing off their hand crafted items and merch. We had

17
00:00:52.119 --> 00:00:56.840
<v Speaker 2>a new knack vendor that was extremely popular, and so

18
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:00.159
<v Speaker 2>everyone was excited to try all of his cities and

19
00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:04.599
<v Speaker 2>just wonderful homemade goods from like melodies create a cuisine.

20
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:09.079
<v Speaker 2>We had, of course, themes of prices, meat market, wonderful

21
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:13.159
<v Speaker 2>ham and beans and just chicken and dumplings and all

22
00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:16.959
<v Speaker 2>kinds of good, hearty false food and so yeah, it

23
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:19.319
<v Speaker 2>was a really nice time. I want to thank all

24
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:21.840
<v Speaker 2>of our sponsors who made it possible and thank the

25
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:24.760
<v Speaker 2>community for coming out. We have a lot of news

26
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:28.079
<v Speaker 2>people who came from out of town from Kansas o

27
00:01:28.239 --> 00:01:33.439
<v Speaker 2>Watso told the Jeans Broken Arrow to give you guys

28
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:35.480
<v Speaker 2>a shout out. I think I went through the Green

29
00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 2>Country tickets steel about it. I don't know at least

30
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:41.079
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and fifty times where I would help people

31
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:42.920
<v Speaker 2>to go get with their Green tickets and they would

32
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:45.159
<v Speaker 2>have this blank look and I would say, you're not

33
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:47.599
<v Speaker 2>from here, and they would be like, no, listen, Jeans,

34
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.439
<v Speaker 2>or we're from a wato and I'd be like, okay,

35
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:51.920
<v Speaker 2>here's what Green Country tickets are and you don't even

36
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:57.359
<v Speaker 2>have to be seven to win. I saw the basket

37
00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:00.640
<v Speaker 2>of Green Country tickets that we were able to give

38
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 2>out with all of the shopping done, and it was

39
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:05.920
<v Speaker 2>a lot, so I think it would have filled a

40
00:02:05.959 --> 00:02:07.760
<v Speaker 2>small trash can. So it was pretty exciting.

41
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:09.879
<v Speaker 1>That's great. You know, we put them all in a

42
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:12.719
<v Speaker 1>big dumpster. We let Kevin go through them on I know,

43
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:17.680
<v Speaker 1>we got a big event coming up on Friday at

44
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Ambler Hall.

45
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, we have so many things coming up

46
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.960
<v Speaker 2>at the end of the year it's insane. But yes,

47
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:27.639
<v Speaker 2>on Friday, November twenty second, we have our mostly Mozart

48
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:30.960
<v Speaker 2>concert with Katie Mayhan and we're so excited to have

49
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:34.240
<v Speaker 2>her back. Katie has performed for us at two different

50
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 2>festivals and she's just lovely. She's born in America from Colorado,

51
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:43.639
<v Speaker 2>however she lives in Austria. In fact, she lives two

52
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.599
<v Speaker 2>doors down where Mozart grew up, and so we always

53
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:50.159
<v Speaker 2>love having Katie backs not only perform, but to enlighten

54
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:53.039
<v Speaker 2>nots on what else she has learned about the life

55
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:57.599
<v Speaker 2>and the daily routine of Mozart is pretty fantastic. So yeah,

56
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:01.680
<v Speaker 2>if people are interested in hearing a beautiful concert, she

57
00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:05.919

92
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:56.680

<v Speaker 2>It's beautiful. It will be a very nice, lovely, blacking

105
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:39.800
<v Speaker 2>a little early because we try to accommodate to these

00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:42.680
<v Speaker 2>schedule She is on a final way tour in America

107
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.319

108
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:48.279
<v Speaker 2>so she could get back to Austria, we went ahead

109
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:52.879
<v Speaker 2>and bunted up hashtag getting Tuesdays won't theoretically fall until

110
00:05:52.920 --> 00:05:55.800
<v Speaker 2>the Tuesday after Thanksgitting, so we're having ours a little

111
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:59.000
<v Speaker 2>bit early, which means this is our fundraiser, just to

112
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:02.000
<v Speaker 2>bring awareness to the arts and get some posts out

113
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:05.199
<v Speaker 2>to support us so that we can continue bringing wonderful

114
00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:09.040
<v Speaker 2>concerts and music educational programming through those in Buglesville.

115
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:12.800
<v Speaker 1>We've also got the big Saint Nicholas to do coming

116
00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:14.279
<v Speaker 1>up on December sixth.

117
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, and I have to say Tom this weekend, I

118
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:21.720
<v Speaker 2>haven't watched TV and I don't know, maybe six months,

119
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:24.399
<v Speaker 2>but I just decided to put it on person background

120
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:28.079
<v Speaker 2>and guess what. There was a Hallmark movie about a

121
00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:31.800
<v Speaker 2>German Chris Kendall market, but they also talked a lot

122
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:34.560
<v Speaker 2>about Saint Nicholas Day and I loved it. I was like,

123
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:37.199
<v Speaker 2>oh my gosh, this is so awesome hotbtting. And so

124
00:06:37.480 --> 00:06:41.360
<v Speaker 2>on December sixth we will be celebrating Saint Nicholas Day.

125
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:43.920
<v Speaker 2>For those of you who don't know about Saint Nicholas,

126
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:46.560
<v Speaker 2>he is the true, live, real person that we now

127
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:49.839
<v Speaker 2>know a Santa Claus, but Saint Nicholas was an actual person.

128
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:53.480
<v Speaker 2>He was a saint from the fourth century who has

129
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:56.639
<v Speaker 2>become an inspiration to many of us through his kindness

130
00:06:56.639 --> 00:07:00.360
<v Speaker 2>and generosity. And so again Saint Nicholas will become back

131
00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:04.399
<v Speaker 2>to Bartlesville. He will be at Ambler Hall on December six,

132
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:08.040
<v Speaker 2>and we welcome all of our families and children to

00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.480
<v Speaker 2>gold chocolate queens will be in there, all kinds of good.

153
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:16.360
<v Speaker 2>They'll be like an activity book that you can color

154
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:18.720
<v Speaker 2>in and do all kinds of sun games. So they're

<v Speaker 2>pretty cool bags. Just a fundraisers for us, but it's

<v Speaker 2>student will receive the bag, and that's one of our

162
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:44.279
<v Speaker 2>favorite kinds of year is to get to play a

163
00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:47.279
<v Speaker 2>little bit of Saint Nicholas and taste those bags over there.

164
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:49.960
<v Speaker 2>So we encourage everyone to go check out the website

165
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:53.039

166
00:08:53.039 --> 00:08:55.799
<v Speaker 2>be able to pick them up the week of December sixth,

167
00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:58.120
<v Speaker 2>and we'll have the schedule on the website for you

168
00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.879
<v Speaker 2>to insue all of that. But if that was enough, Pump,

169
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:06.120
<v Speaker 2>we also have a concert that is very near and

170
00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:09.360
<v Speaker 2>deer special to my heart. It is our very musical

171
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:14.080
<v Speaker 2>Christmas concert being put on by our very new and

172
00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:18.440
<v Speaker 2>very exciting Ocean Music Youth Keyboard Orchestra, and that's on

173
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:21.679
<v Speaker 2>December thirteenth of this year. That will be at the

174
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:25.679
<v Speaker 2>First Presbyterian Church starting at seven. And this is our

175
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:31.080
<v Speaker 2>new keyboard orchestra that if you imagine a seventies youth ensemble,

176
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:34.759
<v Speaker 2>now you take ten keyboards and these kids learn how

177
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:38.159
<v Speaker 2>to play the different instruments and different instruments, fores and

178
00:09:38.279 --> 00:09:41.639
<v Speaker 2>arrangements to make it sound like you are sitting in

179
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:45.600
<v Speaker 2>front of a large symphony. It is pretty darn cool.

180
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:49.279
<v Speaker 2>And to our knowledge, we are the only ones definitely

181
00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:51.080
<v Speaker 2>in this region, but we've sort of seen in the

182
00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:54.240
<v Speaker 2>United States. I think we are the first youth keyboard

183
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.200
<v Speaker 2>orchestra and so these guys are going to put on

184
00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:01.559
<v Speaker 2>a fantastic concert with Chris of songs that everyone loves

185
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:06.000
<v Speaker 2>and everyone will recognize, under the instruction of Lucas Steel,

186
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:09.759
<v Speaker 2>who was our the loved piano instructor in Bartlefell and

187
00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:13.519
<v Speaker 2>Kraffee Stewart, who is also amazed at what she does.

188
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:15.559
<v Speaker 2>I think she can use it director for first prize.

189
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:18.600
<v Speaker 2>But then she also teaches kids and those two together

190
00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:22.080
<v Speaker 2>are quite a course. So we can't wait to hear

191
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:24.720
<v Speaker 2>what they have in source us and see all these kids.

192
